Couple Chase and Fire on Agent over Maserati Repossession

 

West Palm Beach, FL – October 31, 2024 – Like a stereotype out of an episode of “Operation Repo”, the borrower came out shirtless with gun in hand. But unlike that cheesy show, the agent chose to flee with the Maserati on the lift rather than wrestle in the yard. Unfortunately, he probably should have picked a better location to secure it and soon found himself chased and under fire.

Court records report that at about 1 am on Wednesday, an unnamed repossession agent arrived at the home of Brian and Lori Martin of the gated community of Wellington to recover a Maserati. Having lifted it, Brian Martin is reported to have rushed out of the home shirtless and with a pistol in hand.

Wisely, the agent fled. But as he stopped at the community gates to secure the vehicle, Brian Martin came back and opened fire on the agent from the passenger seat as his wife Lori was at the wheel of their Mercedez SUV.

The report states that the Martins proceeded to chase the Repossessor along Lake Worth Road, while Brian allegedly fired additional shots from the passenger seat as the agent called 911.

Responding police stopped the Mercedes and arrested both of the Martins. Inside the Mercedez, deputies found a semi-automatic handgun and a bullet. When interviewed, the couple were reported to have admitted their intention to reclaim the Maserati from the agent and Brian also admitted to having fired the weapon to intimidate the driver.
